Robin:
Gaius, I am SO sorry about earlier! I had no idea you were in the bath...

Gaius:
Aw, no worries. At least I hadn't taken off my smallclothes yet, eh? Er, but I did want to mention I'm usually in much better shape. With the stress of this blasted war, I've been eatin' more sweets than usual. Usually I'm a real piece of eye candy. Belly like a washboard, glutes like a lumberja—

Robin:
Okay, then! That's quite enough. I believe you... Er, but I did notice something else, and...it has me a little worried...

Gaius:
WHAT?! You saw THAT?! Gods, how embarrassing... It's just...uh...some poison oak I got into the other day, I swe—

Robin:
I'm talking about the tattoo on your arm. It's the one they use to mark convicted criminals, isn't it?

Gaius:
Oh, that? Yeah, I got caught once doing a favor for a mate. Paid the price. But, uh, I'd appreciate it if you kept that little nugget under your hat, Bubbles.

Robin:
...Did you just call me Bubbles? Er, but don't worry. I won't tell any—

Gaius:
You'll tell everyone, you say? So it's to be blackmail, is it? Fine then. I can understand taking an opportunity to line your pockets. You can have my portion of dinner tonight, okay? Will that slake your greed for now?!

Robin:
Er, one helping of bear is already more than enough, thanks. Also, I'm not blackma—

Gaius:
You drive a hard bargain, Bubbles! Very well. Take this custard pie!

Robin:
...No, thank you. I'm not—

Gaius:
If you are looking for ransom, I can assure you I don't have any money. But what I do have are a very particular set of honey cakes...

Robin:
Look, I don't want any treats from you, all right?! I'll keep your blasted secret!

Gaius:
Whoa, easy there, Bubbles! Here, maybe a little chocolate will put you in a better mood...

Robin:
Gaius? I didn't know you ran a market stall...

Gaius:
Oh, sure. I like to get out, meet the common folk, sell the odd trinket... Speaking of which, see anything you fancy? I've got silk smallclothes from exotic ports, genuine leather belts, top-quality figs...

Robin:
Do you have any books? Strategy books, specifically? I've been hoping to expand my tactical knowledge to better serve the Shepherds. However, I can't find a single volume in these parts. It really is most strange...

Gaius:
Strategy books, is it? Wait right there, Bubbles!

Robin:
Huh? Where'd he go? ...Oh, you're back! That was fast.

Gaius:
Take a gander at this lot, and tell me if any of 'em tickle your fancy!

Robin:
By the... Gaius, this crate is FULL of books! Did you buy every tome in the market?!

Gaius:
Sort of. Here, they're yours. Every last one, my gift to you! But that makes us even about the whole "wink-wink" thing!

Robin:
Gods, but you are pigheaded. For the last time, Gaius, I am NOT blackmailing you! Now please, return these books. I can't take them in good conscience.

Gaius:
Oh, I see! Books aren't good enough? Still holding out for something better?!

Robin:
*Sigh* Sometimes I wonder why I even try... ...Oh, what a handsome pendant. I've never seen the like.

Gaius:
The pendant, then? And we can call it even?

Robin:
GAIUUUUUUS!

Gaius:
Guess not!

Gaius:
Here, Bubbles. I got you something.

Robin:
A pendant? ...Is this because of the one I saw in town that I liked? Er, thank you, Gaius, but I'm not sure I feel—

Gaius:
Heck of a thing, too! Probably worth a big sack of gold down at the market.

Robin:
Then I must refuse. I can't accept such an extravagant gift.

Gaius:
All right, maybe I stretched the truth, just a little... It'd be worth a sack of gold IF they paid for sentimental value, see? ...'Cause I made it myself.

Robin:
YOU made this? But, it's magnificent!

Gaius:
Pleased you like it, Bubbles. Makes all the effort worthwhile.

Robin:
But why did you—

Gaius:
Oh, no particular reason! None at all! Just...one good turn and all that.

Robin:
You're trying to bribe me again, aren't you?! I've already told you a hundred times, I'll keep your secret! I gave you my word, and that should be the end of it!

Gaius:
Look, I trust you. Honest and truly. It's just that in my business, there's no such thing as a free lunch. Gal who says she'll do something for nothing? Well, she's the first one wanting payback down the line!

Robin:
...Oh, very well. I was hoping it wouldn't come to this. I have something important to tell you.

Gaius:
Important?

Robin:
It's a secret. A very embarrassing one. You see... *whisper, whisper*

Gaius:
BWAAA HA HA HA! And the chicken...?! Oh, you did NOT do that!

Robin:
Ah, but I did. And now you are the only one who knows. So in return for you keeping it safe, I promise to safeguard YOUR secret. Do we have a deal?

Gaius:
...Heh, I see what you did there. And...I appreciate it. All right. Deal. ...But you have to keep the pendant! It's not a bribe, now. More like a... I don't know... A thank-you gift.

Robin:
In that case, I accept.

Robin:
Gaius? When are you going to tell me what this is all about?

Gaius:
Just come here, Bubbles. I've got something I want to show you.

Robin:
What is it? Did you make another pendant?

Gaius:
Nope. I did one better. ...Here.

Robin:
Oh my goodness, Gaius! What a beautiful ring.

Gaius:
Really? Phew! Glad I didn't screw it up. See, 'cause I was kind of hopin' you'd...wear it.

Robin:
I...don't understand...

Gaius:
Well, it's an engagement ring, see? And I'm offering it to you.

Robin:
...Oh gods. You're serious, aren't you?

Gaius:
Never been more serious in my life! Robin, you're the sweetest gal I've ever met. And I love you. So? Will you marry me, Bubbles?

Robin:
Ha ha, well it's unlike you to ask a favor without offering something in return...

Gaius:
Aw, come on, don't leave me hangin'! I'm seriously dyin' here!

Robin:
So what do I get, then? A lifetime together with you? Always and forever?

Gaius:
I...guess?

Robin:
Is that asking too much?

Gaius:
No way! That's a piece of cake! Right then, it's a deal. I promise to make you happy for the rest of your life.

Robin:
Then my decision is a piece of cake, too. I've been smitten with you for ages, Gaius. Of course I'd be honored to be your wife.

Gaius:
Aw, thanks, Robin! You've brought joy to this old brigand's heart! Now come here and give me some sugar, Bubbles.

Robin:
Er, but, Gaius? One other condition: you have to stop calling me Bubbles.

[Confession CG scene]
Baby, you're a river of chocolate and an ocean of cream. I'm gonna steal your heart on a daily basis.
